I have a shell account on a remote linux computer and I want the contents of my home machine's Dropbox folder also on the remote computer. How can I do this?

    Assuming you're allowed to install applications, you'll want to do a headless install. Follow the steps at the bottom of the Linux Install page.

and

Please advise.
